DoCoMo, Baccarat and Sharp introduces their first common Phone in Japan

DoCoMo and Baccarat may not have much in common, but today they finally find the way to work together with Sharp’s latest phone the SH-09C. Rests assure this new phone has not been designed entirely with Baccarat’s luxury glass but come with he company unique design, color and logo.
Made for a certain class of customers this new SH-09C hides beneath its elegant body your usual DoCoMo dumb phone with a 3.4″ WVGA new Mobile ASV screen, a 14.10Mpix censor, Full HD video and HDMI, WiFi, GPS in a slick body of just 112x50x16.9mm for 138g only.

Finally the SH-09c will be sold in a limited quantity of just 5,000 units this march in Japan.

Whoa there. Don’t go calling Japanese phones dumbphones. Just cause they don’t run an American Smartphone OS doesnt make them dumb

Arent japanese phones much better then the all the other phones…..they even have more tech then the iwannabephone and they are much sexier to

Japanese phones are poorly designed in many aspects. First the material use is cheap plastics and “paint” often peals away after 6 month. But the worst part is the OS with an UI badly designed cumbersome where each elements rarely match one another it feels like a different team has been used on every different mode of the phone and never met to integrate each parts together to give a seamless experience. Mail Application are just horrible and rarely support something else that the Operator Email, you won’t be able for example to add your Gmail or Yahoo Account on these phones. Finally the Browser is that bad and slow that you would be better of using the one of Pocket PC 2002 Edition.

Are you kidding me I have the Panasonic P905i and without a doubt its quality is far superior then other international phones and the material is really well made.Paint doesnt peal at all I have friends who use japanese mobile too and there phone are still in very good condition and most of them have bought the phones second hand.About the japanese os I think its okay not user friendly to international user but once you get hang of it, it is fun.Not sure about the mail application since its mostly locked and the same for internet to but I saw a video on youtube where a japanese guys was using internet on his japanese phone dont remember the model but youtube was the same as we see it in PCs not like the iphone one or the nokia
do have something against japanese technology or something??

Compare any Japanese phone to an iPhone or an HTC HD and you will see the difference in quality build. Then take any Android Japanese phone and compare it to an HTC running android and you will understand what I mean with UI optimization.

Been here since the past 9 years, and while at first Japanese phone was ahead, now they are clearly behind when it comes to UI design and hardware quality. Check around in the train and look how many Japanese phones have their paint peeling away.

I’d like to note every cellphone service provider, over the course of a year, will together produce hundreds of new phone models, most of which that are available in a variety of colors. My Casio Japanese “dumb”phone is years ahead of any other phone I’ve ever owned. Yes, the paint does chip, but that’s only because Japanese use their phones way more than people in any other countries, and unlike most smartphones, there really aren’t any cases to protect them.

Let me also remind you there was no competition for smartphones in Japan until last year or so. Japanese phone makers were completely not prepared for smartphones to take off. They’ll get better with time.

And Daimaeou, if you’re going to write articles, please act professional. You’re extreme bias in almost every article really ruins the integrity of this website.

I’d trade in my Xperia for that, since I already have the Galaxy Tab for apps, e-mail and Internet and don’t need anything from my phone apart from calls, good camera and IPX5/IPX7-8 waterproofness so I can have conversations during bath time. Also, like most flip phones, it’s one hell of a sexy fashion accessory.
